We all have a part to play.

“Let us build – for the lost are coming home”
In the continuation of Nehemiah’s story, we see that though there was much opposition the walls of Jerusalem were built! Praise God for Nehemiah’s strength in the midst of such hostility and opposition! We then read in chapter 7, a description of the number of ‘exiles’ who then returned to Jerusalem, around 50,000 people returned […]
Who will answer the call?
In these days we find ourselves in, who are the people that God can raise up to fulfil His purposes before Jesus takes His church? Who are those who hear from God, seek God, know His heart and allow the Holy Spirit to guide them into their calling and destiny? We see many examples of […]
What’s in your hand?
After God had told Moses he wanted him to draw his people out of Egypt, Moses offered up excuses to get out of it. In Exodus 4 God asked Moses ‘What’s in your hand?’ Moses replied ‘A Rod’God can change the world with a click of his finger, yet he chooses to use people to […]
Return to God
In the book of Deuteronomy chapter 6 verses 4 and 5, God lays out some very clear instruction for His people. “Hear, O Israel! The Lord is our God, the Lord is one!

The Gathering Storm
When looking at the current affairs and news around the world, one must be acutely aware that something is not quite right.

In the parable of the ‘talents’ in Matthew 25 (verses 14-30), the Master upon returning and seeing those who put to work their ‘given talents’, exclaims – “well done my good and faithful servant, come and enter into the joy of your Lord”. Faithful can be defined as- “a person who is loyal and steadfast, […]
“I will Build My Church” – Phase 7. The Church of Laodicea, The ‘Lukewarm church.’
As we are approaching fast the end of two thousand years of church history, the period of time spoken by Jesus, what is happening with this ‘last’ church phase? Prophetically, Laodicea represents the final phase of the church. With the imminent return of Christ to take the Bride (His true Church), and the days of […]
Practical application of Grace
Walking in the Spirit vs walking in flesh. Galatians 5 : 16 -26 A Christian life is not passive submission but active surrender. We cannot wake up and think, as the Holy Spirit is in us, we can just say to The Spirit -You lead us. Then we turn around and do whatever we like […]
